0:13
Speaker 1: glad to be here. You've been ducking the show for
0:15
Speaker 1: two years? Have I been dug in? I feel like
0:17
Speaker 1: I'm just hard to get a hold of. I've I've
0:19
Speaker 1: you've recorded here, like, I don't know how about a
0:22
Speaker 1: thousand times strict COVID restrictions here? I had no COVID restriction.
0:26
Speaker 1: We're the only studio in LA with zero. Coach just
0:28
Speaker 1: busted out in the interview when I was recording one
0:30
Speaker 1: time I got it in. Yeah, that saw how things work. Yeah,
0:34
Speaker 1: I'm bad. I'm bad at schedules anyway, man, welcome, how's
0:38
Speaker 1: everything well? First of all, you announced the new album
0:40
Speaker 1: YEP this Friday, coming out Friday for twenty nine nobody
0:44
Speaker 1: album drops. Uh, So you've been working on a lot
0:46
Speaker 1: of music. You tease, like a project called Jaws YEP,
0:50
Speaker 1: and then this album comes like what's cool? Yeah? I like,
0:55
Speaker 1: none of my fans should ever listen to me when
0:56
Speaker 1: I'm talking about what's coming out next, because I you know,
0:59
Speaker 1: I switches up on me every day, all right. I
1:01
Speaker 1: kind of got like ten ideas constantly brewing in my brain,
1:05
Speaker 1: like albums that I'm working on. So like Jaws was
1:08
Speaker 1: the project that I got all my producers on, Like
1:11
Speaker 1: I pretty much got like six guys that been my
1:13
Speaker 1: go to guys, including Chalk. Now, so Jaws is like
1:16
Speaker 1: the project with everybody on it, and it's turning out. Also, honestly,
1:21
Speaker 1: it's like half done right now. It's sick, but it's
1:23
Speaker 1: just like it's hard to get seven dudes from different
1:26
Speaker 1: parts of the country, you know, and and Locke lives
1:29
Speaker 1: in Germany now, so oh shit, Jaws put on hold,
1:32
Speaker 1: Like I think we're gonna do second session in May,
1:34
Speaker 1: but yeah, nobody like me and Tasty record Demni every day,
1:37
Speaker 1: so nobody was like, let's let's give him some crack.
1:39
Speaker 1: You knock it out quickly, not really, I mean, like,
1:43
Speaker 1: you know, it's been about six months. Some of the
1:45
Speaker 1: records are like yes, some are brand new, but some yeah,
1:48
Speaker 1: about six months. Because last year you did you put
1:51
Speaker 1: out the project with Chalk find Our and the Wolf Project,
1:54
Speaker 1: and then you're the Wolf Collab project and then you
1:57
Speaker 1: put out like one hundred dollars mixtape. Yeah we did that,
2:01
Speaker 1: which was you sold a thousand of them rights and copies. Yeah,
2:05
Speaker 1: real Nipsey hustle, like man, shout out Nipsey to go.
2:08
Speaker 1: You sold? So was it all? They were all on
2:10
Speaker 1: USB's right now. We did. We did like eight hundred
2:15
Speaker 1: physical CDs and like two hundred USBs or something like that.
2:17
Speaker 1: So nice little hundred thousand dollars come up. Yeah, you
2:20
Speaker 1: could say that, how like how did you decide what
2:23
Speaker 1: to put on the how did you decide what to
2:25
Speaker 1: put on the one hundred dollars project? But like the
2:28
Speaker 1: original idea behind it was like, you know, as an artist,
2:32
Speaker 1: you got a lot of music, you know what I mean,
2:33
Speaker 1: you know, for managing artists is like we record hundreds
2:36
Speaker 1: of songs and almost that nobody will ever hear. Yeah,
2:38
Speaker 1: and a lot of it's really dope, you know. So
2:40
Speaker 1: the kind of the idea is like we still wanted
2:42
Speaker 1: to work on this album, like still working on Nobody,
2:44
Speaker 1: still working on Jaws. But I don't know, we were
2:46
Speaker 1: just like, man, what's a way that we could like
2:48
Speaker 1: really give people these records that I don't know if
2:50
Speaker 1: they'll come out for you know, another year or whatever,
2:53
Speaker 1: and so we just like, I don't know, we put
2:55
Speaker 1: our heads together. The one hundred Dollar mixege was twenty
2:57
Speaker 1: five songs, so twenty five records. Are they never ever
3:01
Speaker 1: going to be on DSPs? And nobody and nobody's uploaded
3:03
Speaker 1: it online because I wrote everybody a letter, Like all
3:06
Speaker 1: thousand came with this typewriter letter from me that was
3:09
Speaker 1: just basically explaining to them that this was like a
3:12
Speaker 1: sacrifice to the creative gods. You know, it's like twenty
3:14
Speaker 1: five records I put hours in that I'm not going
3:17
Speaker 1: to put out. They're just for the fans, and no
3:19
Speaker 1: one's leaked. One's leaked it. I still looking at it.
3:22
Speaker 1: I'm like, bro, we got the coolest fans man. Everybody real.
3:25
Speaker 1: They asked me before they play it for their friends,
3:28
Speaker 1: they'll DM me and be like, bro, can I show
3:30
Speaker 1: my homie the table? I'm like, yeah, that's crazy quick
3:33
Speaker 1: hunting Bag one hundred thousand, it's a nice coming, man.
3:38
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, that was great. Me and Tasty has been
3:40
Speaker 1: figuring out how to get the bag independent. I feel
3:42
Speaker 1: like we've been pretty creative. Yeah, I mean Yeah, for
3:46
Speaker 1: artists who are watching this, like, what are some of
3:48
Speaker 1: the things that you have figured out when it I mean,
3:51
Speaker 1: obviously you do features, and I love how you address
3:55
Speaker 1: some of those artists that you do features for on
3:57
Speaker 1: fine art, I said, I said. I never what I said.
4:02
Speaker 1: I never sold out just to I never made music
4:06
Speaker 1: just to make it deal. Except for every feature that
4:07
Speaker 1: I ever did trying to only be a rapper and
4:10
Speaker 1: pay the bills. But shout out them rappers. They kept
4:12
Speaker 1: it alive. I hope they'll thrive and win. My feature
4:14
Speaker 1: price too high, you never could buy it again. I thought,
4:17
Speaker 1: you know, like I really do appreciate all the artist
4:20
Speaker 1: you know. I know some people maybe look at the
4:22
Speaker 1: features and it's like these some of these people ain't
4:25
Speaker 1: on your level. But like, I don't know, it's all
4:27

4:30
Speaker 1: happy to get it. Bro. Yeah, I've seen a few

Speaker 1: don't discriminate. The money's blue. I'm in there. The money's blue.
4:37
Speaker 1: I don't feel like it like take away from my
4:39
Speaker 1: brand because I just I make so much music and
4:41
Speaker 1: I don't know I'm coming every time, Like every single
4:44

5:57
Speaker 1: things you're doing to show stream I mean streaming bag
6:01
Speaker 1: is we're making beats to you, guys are making beats
6:03
Speaker 1: too Tasty taught me that he'd make a crazy bag
6:07
Speaker 1: off of beats, and like he's been teaching me production
6:09
Speaker 1: here and there and ship. So we put a beat
6:11
Speaker 1: tape together out we made I'll tell you after the show,
6:16
Speaker 1: you're druck in the high r s. Yeah, it was
6:18
Speaker 1: a chunk. So we made good money out there as streams.
6:21
Speaker 1: I mean the Wolf the Wolf album increased me in
6:23
Speaker 1: his pocket is about double. That Wolf album was a
6:28
Speaker 1: nice little game changer for you. You feel like, yeah,
6:30
Speaker 1: shout out the Yellow Wolf. I just want to say
6:32
Speaker 1: he's the only and the realist artist for being one
6:35
Speaker 1: of the few that like gave me public love. But
6:38
Speaker 1: also put a bag in my pocket. You know. Besides Berdman,
6:41
Speaker 1: Ain't nobody ever done that, So he's real for that
6:45
Speaker 1: big bag. Yeah, and he doesn't work with like anyone. No. Hell,
6:49
Speaker 1: we've been waiting for him and Rich to put a
6:50
Speaker 1: project out for like twelve years, and I wonder that
6:53
Speaker 1: I haven't. It's never gonna happen. We've been talking about
6:55
Speaker 1: part two, that'll be fire. He's you know, he's in
6:59
Speaker 1: his rock mode in the album. Well, but at some
7:02
Speaker 1: point when it's Ness said, you know, every time I
7:04
Speaker 1: send him a record, he'd be like, man, we took
7:06
Speaker 1: the lead on those songs. I took the lead as
7:09
Speaker 1: far as I chose all the beats like Tasty Yeah,
7:14
Speaker 1: Like we pretty much read Tastey's house picking beats out
7:16
Speaker 1: for a couple of days. So I came with like
7:19
Speaker 1: the creative direction as far as like beats and like
7:21
Speaker 1: what you know, I kind of thought directions were gonna
7:23
Speaker 1: be But I mean, as far as the records go,
7:26
Speaker 1: it was pretty much even like Wolf the intro. Wolf
7:29
Speaker 1: wrote his very right when I played on the beat.
7:30
Speaker 1: He wrote that shit in about ten minutes. And yeah,
7:32
Speaker 1: I feel like Wolf really brought the bars out of
7:34
Speaker 1: him he turned up. So it was pretty I mean
7:37
Speaker 1: it's pretty even as far as like the writing and
7:40
Speaker 1: shit went. But he kind of like gave me the
7:42
Speaker 1: go to to just kind of forefront the direction of you.
7:44
Speaker 1: I feel like lyrically you had your sharpest year last
7:46
Speaker 1: year because I feel like fine art was very much
7:49
Speaker 1: like a very heavy on the bars. Yeah, Like what
7:54
Speaker 1: it was was that when you know, I've been recording
7:57
Speaker 1: myself for a long time, so a lot of times
7:58
Speaker 1: you get in there kind of freestyle your vibes. But
8:01
Speaker 1: when I was in Nashville working on the Wolf album,
8:03
Speaker 1: like they record everything analog like or like through this board,
8:07
Speaker 1: you know, so like no presets on your vocals, so
8:10
Speaker 1: I kind of just had to get back into like
8:12
Speaker 1: my writing bag. And then it just kind of like
8:13
Speaker 1: reminded me, like I'm fucking top tier when I do that,
8:17
Speaker 1: you know, So I think fine art and that. Yeah,
8:20
Speaker 1: do you feel like because I feel like you'd always
8:22
Speaker 1: kind of been doing your thing independently, But I feel
8:24
Speaker 1: like from the beginning of the pandemic you had, the
8:29
Speaker 1: pandemic brought the hustle out you and never was in you.
8:32
Speaker 1: Pandemic just turned us up. What the fuck is the
8:34
Speaker 1: name of the We Ain't Scared of No Police, bitch
8:37
Speaker 1: marshal Ow. That was like, that was our biggest record.
8:39
Speaker 1: I was gonna say, thats your biggest record up until
8:41
Speaker 1: the Wolf album came out, and so it's like, dang god,
8:44
Speaker 1: because like my biggest record prie of that was like
8:45
Speaker 1: a record. Yeah, yeah, yeah, we did that. We did
8:50
Speaker 1: the we like we were recording here right when the
8:52
Speaker 1: Pandemic was starting to hit. Yeah, and then I was like, yeah,
8:55
Speaker 1: we should do a fucking pandemic theme table, came up
8:58
Speaker 1: with all the song titles, and then knocked that shit
9:01
Speaker 1: out in like two days. It's crazy because that song
9:04
Speaker 1: came out like a month or two prior to all
9:06
Speaker 1: that like civil rights stuff with the Black Lives Matter
9:09
Speaker 1: and everything, so it was just we didn't play none
9:11
Speaker 1: of that. It's just you know, that was like, I
9:14
Speaker 1: feel like you were one of the first guys to
9:17
Speaker 1: put a pandemic. Everyone had a Pandemic project yeah, and
9:20
Speaker 1: had like kind of got played out at some point,
9:22
Speaker 1: But now, like, do you feel like because I feel
9:24
Speaker 1: like you've had the best two and a half years
9:27
Speaker 1: of your career since the Pandemic started or two years. Yeah.
9:29
Speaker 1: You know what's crazy is that, like my bag kind
9:32
Speaker 1: of slowed at first because you know, like the pandemic
9:35
Speaker 1: hit right when we were finishing up this tour, so
9:36
Speaker 1: like tours like a third of the bag, right, you know,
9:38
Speaker 1: as a artist you got like streams merch tour, so
9:42
Speaker 1: like I felt like a third of the bag was gone, right,
9:45
Speaker 1: and then we just I don't know, me and Tacy
9:47
Speaker 1: are addicted to money, so we're like, you know, when
9:50
Speaker 1: some stimulus sex started coming, everybody had money. Yeah, we
9:54
Speaker 1: features taking all the stimulus money. We got every rapper
9:57
Speaker 1: stimulus check now, like honestly, just it brought the focus
10:01
Speaker 1: back to the music, which was dope. And then the
10:03
Speaker 1: woof shit happened. Like I don't know, there was just
10:04
Speaker 1: a lot of like pivotal things going on in my
10:06
Speaker 1: life around that time that just all added up to that.

Speaker 1: sent it off to the lawyer, but I was like, yeah,
14:35
Speaker 1: whatever it says, let's go. Like, honestly, like birded, like
14:39
Speaker 1: our relationship was different. It wasn't like all business y
14:43
Speaker 1: and you know, labels, like it was just him being like, yo, shit,
14:46
Speaker 1: I want to be a part of your career. Like
14:48
Speaker 1: here's a bag. Like, honestly, cash money has been like
14:50
Speaker 1: the least, Like I don't know, I was blessed for
14:53
Speaker 1: that situation. Like they never were like strictlers on trying
14:55
Speaker 1: to recoup money from me and just weird shit. Like
14:58
Speaker 1: to be real, they just gave me a fat ass
15:00
Speaker 1: bag and did some things for me. So I'm like, well,
15:02
Speaker 1: because we always hear, yeah it's mad things about bird
15:06
Speaker 1: all fucking or like, you know, my fans will be
15:08
Speaker 1: like his music's changing because of cash money or birds
15:11
Speaker 1: not putting off you know, all that kind of shit.
15:13
Speaker 1: But like my real perspective of it is that, like,
15:16
Speaker 1: you know, I don't think nobody owe me anything in
15:19
Speaker 1: this world. And so to me, like birds did far
15:22
Speaker 1: beyond what he owed me. You know, he don't owe
15:24
Speaker 1: me shit. So he gave me, you know, two hundred
15:27
Speaker 1: rags or something like that. When I was nineteen, you know,
15:29
Speaker 1: I was a jit, so I was super dope. Hundreds. Yeah,
15:32
Speaker 1: And so like they did some other shit like as
15:34
Speaker 1: the label for me, video shoots and a couple of things.
15:37
Speaker 1: But after that it was kind of like they were
15:39
Speaker 1: going through this shit with wane. Streaming music became a thing,
15:42
Speaker 1: so like the whole situation just kind of changed, and
15:45
Speaker 1: like I think they were still like at this place
15:48
Speaker 1: of like learning how to navigate the new music scene,
15:51
Speaker 1: because you know, it's not the mixtape er anymore. It's like,
15:54
Speaker 1: you know, this new era. So I think they're trying
15:56
Speaker 1: to figure that out, and I just kind of did
15:58
Speaker 1: my thing. But they just always gave me freedom to
16:00
Speaker 1: put out the music I want to make the music.
16:02
Speaker 1: They never tripped on you like recouping or nothing. Bro.
16:04
Speaker 1: They let me put cash money logos on merch and
16:07
Speaker 1: sell the merch and keep all the money. They bought
16:09
Speaker 1: me a tour bus for a tour, didn't recoup any
16:12
Speaker 1: money off that, like they should all me bro, So
16:15
Speaker 1: all those like indie projects that you've been putting out,
16:17
Speaker 1: like that's all you. I have one hundred percent of
16:19
Speaker 1: all of that money, and I always have what's your
16:21
Speaker 1: relationship like with Birdman, because I know you talked to
16:24
Speaker 1: him not too long ago. We're talking shit like it's
16:26
Speaker 1: just good. Like he's just kind of like a mentor.
16:28
Speaker 1: Do you think like if you really catch a wave,
16:30
Speaker 1: he's gonna call you and be like, hey man, yeah,
16:33
Speaker 1: and I'd probably rocked the funk out because to me,
16:35
Speaker 1: like he just is real solid, Like you know, from
16:38
Speaker 1: whatever people's perspective is on like what the label could
16:41
Speaker 1: have done. But I think people have this perception that
16:44
Speaker 1: like a label could really make you popping, and I
16:46
Speaker 1: think there's more things the label could have done maybe
16:49
Speaker 1: to be behind shit, but I'm like, you know, I
16:51
Speaker 1: think really the burden falls on the artists, and I
16:53
Speaker 1: wasn't really ready to carry that burden at the time,
16:55
Speaker 1: so you know, I was just legit, So there wasn't
16:58
Speaker 1: really much they could have did. I feel like they
17:00
Speaker 1: did a lot and if I was ready at that
17:02
Speaker 1: there's also like a weird white rapper era low key,
17:05
Speaker 1: like everyone was fighting to be like the white rapper
17:08
Speaker 1: MGK was beefing with Yellow Wolf. There's Maclamore. It's like
17:12
Speaker 1: it was just like you know, because now it's like
17:14
Speaker 1: I feel like it's not as like weird. I'm glad
17:16
Speaker 1: we passed with Maclamore. And no disrespect mclamoy. Great, got
17:19
Speaker 1: a nice guy. But hey, that album was solid. No
17:22
Speaker 1: it was not, you're crazy, bro, album was not you're
17:25
Speaker 1: telling me that album wasn't good wings. I did not
17:29
Speaker 1: like one song and Maclamore ry artists good. It was
17:33
Speaker 1: a great album. Man. It wasn't better than Kendrick good
17:36
Speaker 1: Kid Mad City, but it was a good body of
17:39
Speaker 1: course not. It depends what. It depends what. It depends
17:43
Speaker 1: what metrics were measured us. It was music that I
17:47
Speaker 1: would bump. But but everybody got different flavors. I mean,
17:51
Speaker 1: so there's no disrespect. I'm sure Macliamore wasn't a bad album,
17:54
Speaker 1: though you said it was a bad album to me personally,
17:56
Speaker 1: just because it's something you won't listen to, that's what
17:59
Speaker 1: makes it bad to me. I mean, I'm not listening
18:01
Speaker 1: to fucking Adele when I drive around, but I'm not
18:03
Speaker 1: gonna call album trash. You know, but there's Adele songs
18:06
Speaker 1: I like, and there's a Maclamore song you like one.
18:09
Speaker 1: There's no way there's not a single man one playing
18:11
Speaker 1: for me. When you first heard thrift Shop, you didn't
18:13
Speaker 1: say this is kind of funky. Now I hated it. Yeah,
18:16
Speaker 1: but I was like, but no, But I was also
18:19
Speaker 1: But I was also a white rapper coming up watching
18:22
Speaker 1: this guy. You know, I've had to do with that
18:23
Speaker 1: a bunch of time, just watching like another dude blow up.
18:26
Speaker 1: They're just like, what the fuck is this? What's going on?
18:29
Speaker 1: That wasn't my wave. I wasn't really big on the
18:31
Speaker 1: Maclimoe at Lea's probably a nice dude. Do you think
18:34
Speaker 1: back and say to yourself, Wow, I was a part
18:35
Speaker 1: of the rich Gang album, one of the most like
18:37
Speaker 1: pivotal influential projects ever. Yeah. I was excited to be
18:42
Speaker 1: a part of the whole moments where like rich Homy
18:44
Speaker 1: and Thug were popping. That's what I'm saying. I was
18:46
Speaker 1: around all those in those studio sessions and just like,
18:48
Speaker 1: you know, miss that wave. It was dope. So you
18:50
Speaker 1: were in the sessions with rich On and and younger,
18:53
Speaker 1: they did that like Milk Marie one, and they did
18:56
Speaker 1: that one in the studio, uh the studio that I recorded,
19:00
Speaker 1: and uh yeah I was there. I was there when
19:01
Speaker 1: they made fucking Lifestyle. Really yeah, what was that? Like crazy?
19:06
Speaker 1: Everybody knew was a hit. Bird was like this is
19:07
Speaker 1: the one, Like we all just were like the lead
19:10
Speaker 1: on Lifestyle. As far as the Thug came up with
19:13
Speaker 1: the metal and everything, yeah, he's yeah, he did his
19:15
Speaker 1: name and Homi late his verse. But yeah, that was
19:18
Speaker 1: just that was just a dope era to be around.
19:20
Speaker 1: Like I don't know, I was like soaking up game
19:22
Speaker 1: at that time, like just kind of just in awe.
19:24
Speaker 1: It was. That's a pretty big deal to say you
19:26
Speaker 1: were at the Lifestyle session. Yeah it was dope. Birdman
19:29
Speaker 1: was there. Yep. Everyone knew. Yeah. Yeah, Like Thug had
19:33
Speaker 1: a lot of dope records, Like he had bro records
19:36
Speaker 1: that didn't come out to like Slim Season three or
19:39
Speaker 1: four or three that that were dope. So like he
19:43
Speaker 1: had all these records playing, but they were trying to
19:45
Speaker 1: find that like real single that took it off. And
19:48
Speaker 1: I don't know, bird got a crazy ear for music.
19:50
Speaker 1: He was like the second they made it, he was
19:52
Speaker 1: like this is the one we shooting the video. It's over.
19:54
Speaker 1: I wish Rich Homie Kwan was I don't know, man,
19:59
Speaker 1: you know he got locked out by his well, he
20:00
Speaker 1: got locked out by his label. He was signed to
20:03
Speaker 1: that label. Now, what's the real reason why they're not
20:05
Speaker 1: fucking each other? Because it was some that I don't know.
20:07
Speaker 1: I just mean, like he couldn't put out music for
20:09
Speaker 1: like three or four years, so like he just kind
20:11
Speaker 1: of cooled off. Why do people listen to that? I
20:13
Speaker 1: would never listen to that. If the label told me
20:15
Speaker 1: I can let me, I would just change my name
20:17
Speaker 1: or something. Yeah, Rich Homi Kwan and Young Thug were
20:20
Speaker 1: like they were like Kobe and uh in Shack back
20:23
Speaker 1: in the day. It was a cool value. But now
20:25
Speaker 1: you got me and Yellow. Who else was on? Who
20:27
Speaker 1: else was technically rich Hello London on the track Durezda
20:31
Speaker 1: Shane so dope really dope, really slept on dope artists
20:36
Speaker 1: London that was like dope London. He pretty much hanneled
20:40
Speaker 1: the production. Yeah, London was killing it. I remember, honestly,
20:43
Speaker 1: like no knock to my guys, but like I had
20:45
Speaker 1: to when they made that Milk Marie record, I like
20:47
Speaker 1: had my guys playing some beats at first, and it
20:50
Speaker 1: was the energy was a little dry, and then London
20:52
Speaker 1: hopped up and went boom and just the whole fucking
20:56
Speaker 1: room went, oh fucking it was out of there. That's crazy.
21:00
Speaker 1: That's basically what Tasty does now. Pre Tasty. Yeah, it's
21:03
Speaker 1: pre tasty. Like once I met Tasty, it was like, yeah,
21:06

22:36
Speaker 1: uh fine tuning and learning the independent game. But I
22:39
Speaker 1: feel like once I really feel like established and I
22:42
Speaker 1: got like enough bag that I could put behind the
22:44
Speaker 1: artists and blow it and not come back, then I'll
22:47
Speaker 1: dump it in. But I got. I don't know. I
22:49
Speaker 1: feel like I got a good year. I'd signed angel
22:52
Speaker 1: Angel Hill. Yeah he coming on, Like shout out to
22:54
Speaker 1: Angel Hill, come through your let's share him not for real,
22:58
Speaker 1: get him to not move to Springfield, Missouri. Well, my
23:01
Speaker 1: thing is that, My thing is that I don't like
23:03
Speaker 1: I want to sign artists that I believe in and
23:05
Speaker 1: just have like a different type of deal. Like I
23:07
Speaker 1: just feel like all the deals that are going on
23:09
Speaker 1: right now is like either labels trying to take too
23:11
Speaker 1: much or it's an advance on your money. I feel
23:13
Speaker 1: like there's ways to sign artists, make your money back,
23:15
Speaker 1: make money, and them be rich as fuck. So yeah,
23:18
Speaker 1: hey listen man, I think yeah, I think like it's
23:21
Speaker 1: always tricky when you're like a super active artist, uh
23:25
Speaker 1: still trying to make it to have another artist under you,
23:28
Speaker 1: because it's like I want to do that, you know
23:29
Speaker 1: what I mean. I don't want to feel that. I
23:31
Speaker 1: don't want them to feel hindered by me. And also
23:33
Speaker 1: just like I got a lot of ways to go.
23:35
Speaker 1: I'm like selfish because you'll see, like you'll see like
23:38
Speaker 1: an artist to be like yeah I got a label,
23:39
Speaker 1: be like bro, but you ain't even all the way
23:41
Speaker 1: like there yet, but like your damnself, do it the
23:43
Speaker 1: right way, you know. Yeah, it's like I really want
23:46
Speaker 1: to have that like billboard. That's why Yo Gotti is
23:48
Speaker 1: working so well, because your Gotti established he wants everyone
23:51
Speaker 1: to be bigger than him. He's already done it, you
23:53
Speaker 1: know what I mean. Yeah, So in time, so uh,
23:57
Speaker 1: you go from being on cash money fast forward, you
24:01
Speaker 1: drop a tape Yellowolf. You're kind of like, how how
24:05
Speaker 1: have you navigated not getting stuck in the the white
24:09
Speaker 1: wrapper box underbelly. I feel like everybody in that box
24:13
Speaker 1: knows I don't belong in that box like them in
24:16
Speaker 1: there now, but like I be real, like everybody in
24:19
Speaker 1: that box, at some point or another has acknowledged that
24:22
Speaker 1: I'm meant to be bigger than that box, you know,
24:25
Speaker 1: like all my homies and that, you know, I fuck
24:27
Speaker 1: with everybody in that land. But I don't know. I mean,
24:29
Speaker 1: the bird man, I feel like Jelly Rope broke through
24:31
Speaker 1: the box, broke the box open, He broke the box open.
24:35
Speaker 1: I think, I mean, I tried to do my fucking
24:38
Speaker 1: hardest to just not be associated with the whole like
24:41
Speaker 1: that scene, But I don't know. It's like the Wolf
24:45
Speaker 1: thing kind of like put me in the dialogue because
24:47
Speaker 1: Wolf's like the goat of that scene. But every but
24:50
Speaker 1: there's a lot of people like Underwolf that are just
24:53
Speaker 1: coow and just very much. So I feel like Wolf
24:57
Speaker 1: is done for the for white rappers as well as
25:00
Speaker 1: really branched out, you know what I mean. So it's
25:02
Speaker 1: dope and he's he's brought you up. Yeah, Like, I'm
25:05
Speaker 1: glad if anybody co signed me it was Wolf because
25:07
Speaker 1: he understands respects the culture as honored the culture. Like
25:11
Speaker 1: you know, I hate the rest of that scene to
25:14
Speaker 1: be real. Yeah, I'm gonna lie like a lot of
25:17
Speaker 1: that ship is cringy as fuck. Man. I'm just like,
25:22
Speaker 1: I can't they just hit me up to have I
25:25
Speaker 1: don't know, some fucking dude on some country ass rapper,
25:29
Speaker 1: what's his name up Church or something. I was like,
25:32
Speaker 1: it's a hard pass for me, you know, It's no,
25:36
Speaker 1: I don't got any anything personal say about up Church
25:38
Speaker 1: because he has seems like a nice guy. It seems
25:40
Speaker 1: like a dope dude. I just can't have no maga
25:42
Speaker 1: rappers on my shot. I just I don't like any
25:44
Speaker 1: of the blurred lines between Like I don't know, like
25:48
Speaker 1: they're ripping up Black Lives matter is crazy, Like that's
25:52
Speaker 1: wild to me. It's like that dude who I fucking
25:55
Speaker 1: when I was living in Tampa, that fucking weeny motherfucker
25:59
Speaker 1: who you were talking ship to, the fat guy, the
26:03
Speaker 1: real fat, ugly dude with the tattoos. I fucking hate
26:11
Speaker 1: this scene. Bro like none of blue hair, and uh,
26:18
Speaker 1: he's from Saint Pete, but nobody in Tampa fucked with
26:20
Speaker 1: him because he was like a goof. But I think
26:22
Speaker 1: he came from like a rich family or something. I
26:24
Speaker 1: don't know. But then all of a sudden, he's like
26:29
Speaker 1: a Trump rapper. He's like a Trump rapper. Here's the thing.
26:32
Speaker 1: The craziest I've watched a lot of white rappers and
26:35
Speaker 1: just people in general. They like find this niche that's
26:38
Speaker 1: going and then they sell out their whole brand for
26:41
Speaker 1: this jiggin. Because it's like one thing. I'll take being
26:45
Speaker 1: at the level that I'm at, because you know, some
26:46
Speaker 1: of those guys do numbers now or they're doing a
26:48
Speaker 1: million views. But I'll tell you what, I'll always take
26:51
Speaker 1: being at a lesser level to keep my integrity high.
26:55
Speaker 1: Like I don't have no desire to like hit certain
26:58
Speaker 1: number of accolades or like, you know, I think I'm
27:00
Speaker 1: one of the dopest artists out there, and like my
27:03
Speaker 1: whole mission and pursuit though is just like on my
27:05
Speaker 1: own artistic path. I'll never sell that short for some
27:08
Speaker 1: trendy like thing. I don't know. I just watched all
27:11
Speaker 1: these exactly. I watched all of them turn from like
27:15
Speaker 1: street rappers to like Trump maga political like that shs man.
27:19
Speaker 1: They're just taking advantage of that whole movement die hard
27:24
Speaker 1: and is atrocious. It's like the worst music. I mean
27:28
Speaker 1: to me, all that's just trash. So it's annoying that
27:30
Speaker 1: I even get like brought into you. I got all
27:32
Speaker 1: these youtubel could you be with those guys? I didn't
27:35
Speaker 1: you put it? But you put it this record out?
27:37
Speaker 1: Which one? Didn't you put it? This record? Which one?
27:40
Speaker 1: Which one? Where you know? What what are you talking about?
27:44
Speaker 1: I got time to that. Yes, hold up now, that
27:46
Speaker 1: wasn't to get me in the dialogue of the white
27:49
Speaker 1: rapper ship. That was because this bitch ass motherfucker made
27:53
Speaker 1: another record about that. I just was proving that was
27:56
Speaker 1: like me being in the gym and just being like Hey,
27:58
Speaker 1: let me show you that I'm way better than those
28:00
Speaker 1: guys are like really bad at making music, so I
28:02
Speaker 1: don't understand any of it. Honestly, the whole thing is
28:05
Speaker 1: like I'm just like, it's just like cringe theater rap,
28:09
Speaker 1: you know. It's like it's like rap that like you
28:11
Speaker 1: have to watch. I call it theater rap because you
28:13
Speaker 1: got to watch the video and listen to the fucking
28:16
Speaker 1: ridiculous shit they say, and then you'll never listen to
28:19
Speaker 1: the song. Shout out to the q A non rap subcategory.
28:22
Speaker 1: Fuck all of y'all, please please disc me some more
28:25
Speaker 1: so that I can be separated further from y'all's fan base.
28:29
Speaker 1: I have no desire to be associated with y'all. I
28:31
Speaker 1: don't want to make y'all's type of music. I think
28:33
Speaker 1: all of y'all trash, and none of y'all could see
28:35
Speaker 1: me on the mic. So let that y'all go repost that.

Speaker 1: but I was like, let's not do it once a year.
36:00
Speaker 1: We'll do it like once every two years, every two
36:03
Speaker 1: years because the year it feels like a cash grab,
36:05
Speaker 1: even though I could do that, like I make enough
36:07
Speaker 1: music for sure cash grab. It's a cash grab, but
36:09
Speaker 1: you're an independent artist. To me, it's like the fact
36:12
Speaker 1: you can say it's not cash grab is like saying
36:16
Speaker 1: that it's for money and there's no value. To me.
36:18
Speaker 1: It was like a really innovative way to get the
36:21
Speaker 1: money we deserve as artists from the people that was
36:24
Speaker 1: willing to spend that, and they got something really special.
36:26
Speaker 1: So I felt like there wasn't like half ass songs. No,
36:28
Speaker 1: we put we put hours in the well that feel
36:32
Speaker 1: like it was worth it. Sold out, Did you bow
36:35
Speaker 1: on you cheap bastard. Man. We could thousand and one man,
36:41
Speaker 1: they was gone. Honestly, yeah, I just bought a house
36:44
Speaker 1: so you know for the hundred sorry put it down
36:48
Speaker 1: payment by uh anything else going on? Bro, Just honestly
36:53
Speaker 1: music always, I'm like still trying to figure out what's
36:57
Speaker 1: too much to drop and what's not enough. You know,
36:59
Speaker 1: you kind of put a fire into my ass last
37:01
Speaker 1: year when I was like working on Jaws and I
37:03

Speaker 1: you know, I'm gonna be I'm gonna be honest though
37:43
